✦Seasonal · 12 recordsFall bucket list

Autumn has short windows: apple picking, leaf colour and pumpkin patches are all over within a few weeks. This writes the list early, puts the short-season things first, gives each item a specific weekend, and keeps a few cosy indoor ideas for the weekends when the weather does not cooperate.

✦ Questions

Fall bucket list, answered.

A mix of outdoor things with short seasons, like apple picking, a pumpkin patch or a walk to see the leaves change, and cosy indoor things like baking, a film marathon or a soup night. The note in this plan has more for adults, couples and families.
At the very start of the season. Leaf colour and harvest activities peak for a few weeks, and those are the items that get missed if the list is written halfway through.
Around ten, roughly one a weekend through the season. It leaves room for bad weather and ordinary life, and a list of forty mostly produces the feeling of having missed it.
